catawba count 7 , the present superin tendent of public instruction he is a gentleman every way reliable though very few have thought of him for gov ernor think of it and the more you think of him the better you will like him as candidate for governor he will bear very close inspection we know him well and tan endorse him m every respect charlotte democrat manv of our eastern people want a man thoroughly acquainted with the wants and condition of tin people of the whole state they want a progress ive man they want one who will not shape politics for the people of one section upon the advice of those from mother in short they want a man for governor who recognizes them as a i;irt of the people of the state and will advise with them on measures per taining to their welfare for such a man they are instinctively turning their eyes toward brazil and beckoning thos j jarvis to come hither but as the ex-governor has his eve on the senate lie will doubtless measure arms with the genial hansom and if he finds the way open to success his east ern friends will have to look up some one else but they have plenty time vet to discover the man perhaps major finger will fill the bill.â€”neic bern journal you will find maj finger all right in every way except be favors the blair bill but as the humbug is dead we hope for all time he cannot bother himself much about it or do anything to pass it he would make a fair gov ernor to all sections of the state but we agree with the journal that many people are longing to see jakyis back at the head of public affairs in north carolina charlotte democrat tom jarvis yes sir give us anotlur tom jarvis north carolina needs him badly he w is a man of the peo ple and for the people if the east c in find another tom jarvis why trot him out and the west will support him but there are few like jarvis they are not hard to find where they exist for they are as shining lights set upon a hill ___ progress of the south dr melville jackson virginia in a late address on the subject of south ern progress and civilization gives some very interesting facts well worthy of consideration the south has newr been given full credit for what it has accomplished in the way of recuperation from the losses of the war it has always been cited as an evidence of the wonderful recu perative power of france that was able to pay to germany in so short a time the 1,000,000,000 indemnity fund de manded of it the south has accom plished much more in a single item its slaves it lost 82,000,000,000 while the devastations of the war were far more serious than those wrought by the german invasion of france be cause the struggle lasted so much longer and penetrated every portion of the south yet from these losses which destroyed nearly all property which were fourfold as great is the injury inflicted on france the south has fully recovered today it has int i ad vanced in wealth and prosperity not only wiping out the last vestiges of the lute war but establishing new indus tries and a new civilization today the south compares with any portion of the country dr jackson shows there are 44 paupers among 10,000 people iii new england to 13 in the south showing that even if the former is the richer section wealth is more equally distributed here in the miter of crimes 11 are committed it new england to s in the south and Â« ily u among the whites morallv and otherwise the southern states today rank with any portion of the united states and of the world â€” maine record east and west for london the asheville citizen has a very strong editorial in its issue of the 4th ! inst on the importance of north-caro j una's being represented at the london american exhibit to be opened in london next year by all means this ' should be done the views of the j citizen are entirely right could north ; carolina make the same exhibit at the eoming exhibition that she did at bos ton in 1883 it would be worth him i dreds of thousands of dollars to her and i her people we want immigration bat j we cannot get it until we have first j advertised the wealth nd resources of our state such an opportunity will , not again present itself now is the time for quoting from the citizen great britian is industrially in a pe culiar position at present a condition of change of doubt of uncertainty for the future of distress in the present of depression in agricultural affairs in manufacturing interests in commercial operations socially and politically dis tured and most anxiously casting eyes around for places of refuge of quietude and of prosperity change and motion are in every contemplation is not now the time for north carolina to speak to act to be present among those agitated elements and quiet them by demonstration of her characteristics that she can provide for the seeker after quiet comfort and freedom all he may desire north carolina is exceedingly rich in her material resources at the boston exhibit she showed a larger variety finer quality of native woods and val uable treasures from the earth with a fairer collection of cereals tobacco fruits cotton and other products than any other state there represented her exhibit attracted more the attention of northern capitalists and foreigners than all else there this is an impor tant matter to the state it should not by any means be neglected too much economy in this matter will do us great harm while the liberal expen dituure of money will be of great good to us let us advertise our wealth and this is the way to do it â€” washinqton j'roy ress here is a picture south corolina is quoted by one of the leading papers of the state as a section singularly remiss in the use of its advantages having under their control resources which should enable them to feed the united states the people of the state do not raise enough food to avert a famine if the railroads should cease running for a few months nearly one-half of the area of the state is available for the cultivation of wheat nearly every pound of flour consumed is made of wheat grown a thousand miles away and comes taxed with the the profits of the fanner the miller the cooper and the railroads for the long haul a large portion of the beef cattle are brought into the state on trains that run over the native cattle at every mile of their progress corn can be grown anywhere between the mountains and the sea but is imported at great expense in sufficient quantity only for the people and their kentucky mules there is none to spare for the hogs and hence bacon is imported thoughjpoultry thrive in all parts of the state turkeys are brought from ten nessee spring chickens are never plentiful ami there are parts of the state where geese or ducks are un known a similar neglect prevails with regard to fish food though the state is covered with a network of rivers with regard to fruit and veg etables thousand of apples rot on the trees or on the ground in the piedmont section every autumn a month or two later apples are bought by the barrel or by the pound in sliced and dried form from pensylvania and new england farmers peaches small fruit and many vegetables are neglected the the consequence being that the differ ent varieties are largely imported as canned goods the people of the state need more than anything else to learn the lesson of the value of small indus tries and to put it everywhere into tract ice â€” the south does not some of those south caro lina faults lap over the n c boundry line is rowan perfectly free from all resemblance to this south carolina picture it is a rather gloomy un progressive and altogether undesirable aspect yet it is not overdrawn let each reader set about trying to remove all resemblance so far as he and his is concerned and times will get better practice economy in both time and material save what you have and save it in the best and most desirable form for marketing if there is no ready sale use it in your own family and sell something else he that will give himself to all man ner of ways to get money may be rich so he that lets fly all he knows or thinks may by chance be satirically witty honesty sometimes keeps a man from becoming rich and civility from ' being witty the valley of death from the chicago inter-ocean the place known as the valley of death or the poison valley is on the island of java it is the most re markable natural example of an atmos phere loaded with carbonic acid gas in | existence it has never been fully explored because of the danger of re raaining more that a few moments in 1 its poisonous atmosphere it is a hoi low near the summit of a mountain range only to be reached by a long climb up the hillside approached through an opening between the hills ! it seems to be an oval-shaped valley about a half a mile across it is about i thirty-five feet deep the bottom is hard i and sandy without vegetation and ' strewn with many large stones j throughout the surface is almost j covered with the bleaching bones of : animals â€” tigers pigs deers and others â€” all kinds of birds and also of human â– beings explorers of the valley seldom venture beyond the borders although : it has been proven that the deadly air does not immediately affect human ! beings this is because the carbonic acid gas being heavier than the atmos phere settles to the bottom of the â– valley dogs and fowls thrown into â– it fall senseless and die in a few min utes no craters or fissures are visible on the floor of this valley and it is ] thought that the openings are near the base of the rocy hills surrounding a notable marriage and divorce social circles are freshly agitated over the news of the divorce of minnie j tunis from her husband dr norcop the divorce was obtained in virginia upon the grounds of cruelty and neg lect alleged in the bill of complaint dr norcop resides in new york he is an englishman by birth son of an english naval officer he is handsome highly accomplished a graduate of medical colleges and a gentleman of the most engaging manners the plaintiff is young and beautiful and ' the possesor of a large fortune left her by her grandmother tunis of norfolk va she is the daughter of mrs king who was a miss henderson of rowan county n c a lady of extraordinary beauty thrice a widow residing now with her daughter in norfolk dr norcop and miss tunis were married at hickory in 1ss'2 and sepe rated the following year after their return from europe whither they went on a bridal tour dr norcop built in asheville a beautiful residence for his bride they arrived from europe one summer morning spent an hour in their home together and parted never more to be reunited the story is quite romantic and sensational and has for years been a topic of conversation in asheville where both parties are well known and are favorites in society â€” if r ashington progress can imagination kill this is perhaps hardly the correct form of question that the british an i colonial druggist puts to itself in dis cussing the death of the young woman at hackney under circumstances in which meating's insect powder largely figured as the powder appears by dr tidy's experiments to be perfectly harmless the suggestion is not unnatu i rally made that the deceased who was ' possibly of a hysterical highly imagi j native turn of mind took the powder in the full belief that by its means her death might be accomplished the writer of the article in our contempo i rary we think wrongly brings forward two remarkable instances of what may be regarded as practical jokes with melancholy terminations in the case of the convict delivered up to the scientist for the purpose of a psycho logical experiment the man was strap ped to a table and blindfolded ostensi bly to be bled to death a siphon containing water was placed near his ! head and the fluid was allowed to trickle audibly into a vessel below it at the same tune that a trifling scratch with a needle was inflicted on the cul prit's neck it is said that death occur red at the end of six minutes fear must have played no inconsiderable share in the fatal result and we do not know whether all the vital organs were in a sound condition though they were presumably so the old story of the case of a college porter is also : one in point the students entrapped j him into a room at night a mock in quiry was held and the punishment of death by decapitation decreed for his ! want of consideration to the students it is small wonder th.it under the do minion of fear and belief in the earn estness of his tormentors the sight of an ax and block with subsequent blindfolding and necessary genuflexion a smart rap with a wet towel on the back of in neck should have been followed by the

thoroughly acquainted with the wants and condition of tin people of the whole state they want a progress ive man they want one who will not shape politics for the people of one section upon the advice of those from mother in short they want a man for governor who recognizes them as a i;irt of the people of the state and will advise with them on measures per taining to their welfare for such a man they are instinctively turning their eyes toward brazil and beckoning thos j jarvis to come hither but as the ex-governor has his eve on the senate lie will doubtless measure arms with the genial

virginia in a late address on the subject of south ern progress and civilization gives some very interesting facts well worthy of consideration the south has newr been given full credit for what it has accomplished in the way of recuperation from the losses of the war it has always been cited as an evidence of the wonderful recu perative power of france that was able to pay to germany in so short a time the 1,000,000,000 indemnity fund de manded of it the south has accom plished much more in a single item its slaves it lost 82,000,000,000 while the devastations of the war were far more serious than those wrought by the german invasion of france be cause the struggle lasted so much longer and penetrated every portion of the south yet from these losses which destroyed nearly all property which were fourfold as great is the injury inflicted on france the south has fully recovered today it has int i ad vanced in wealth and prosperity not only wiping out the last vestiges of the lute war but establishing new indus tries and a new civilization today the south compares with any portion of the country dr jackson shows there are 44 paupers among 10,000 people iii new england to 13 in the south showing that even if the former is the richer section wealth is more equally distributed here in the miter of crimes 11 are committed it new england to s in the south and Â« ily u among the whites morallv and otherwise the southern states today rank with any portion of the united states and of the world â€” maine record east and west for london the asheville citizen has a very

depression in agricultural affairs in manufacturing interests in commercial operations socially and politically dis tured and most anxiously casting eyes around for places of refuge of quietude and of prosperity change and motion are in every contemplation is not now the time for north carolina to speak to act to be present among those agitated elements and quiet them by demonstration of her characteristics that she can provide for the seeker after quiet comfort and freedom all he may desire north carolina is exceedingly rich in her material resources at the boston exhibit she showed a larger variety finer quality of native woods and val uable treasures from the earth with a fairer collection of cereals tobacco fruits cotton and other products than any other state there represented her exhibit attracted more the attention of northern capitalists and foreigners than all else there this is an impor tant matter to the state it should not by any means be neglected too much economy in this matter will do us great harm while the liberal expen dituure of money will be of great good to us let us advertise our wealth and this is the way to do it â€” washinqton j'roy ress here is a picture south corolina is quoted by one of the leading papers of the state as a section singularly remiss in the use of its advantages having under their control resources which should enable them to feed the united states the people of the state do not raise enough food to avert a famine if the railroads should cease running for a few months nearly one-half of the area of the state is available for the cultivation of wheat nearly every pound of flour consumed is made of wheat grown a thousand miles away and comes taxed with the the profits of the fanner the miller the cooper and the

thoughjpoultry thrive in all parts of the state turkeys are brought from ten nessee spring chickens are never plentiful ami there are parts of the state where geese or ducks are un known a similar neglect prevails with regard to fish food though the state is covered with a network of rivers with regard to fruit and veg etables thousand of apples rot on the trees or on the ground in the piedmont section every autumn a month or two later apples are bought by the barrel or by the pound in sliced and dried form from pensylvania and new england farmers peaches small fruit and many vegetables are neglected the the consequence being that the differ ent varieties are largely imported as canned goods the people of the state need more than anything else to learn the lesson of the value of small

to be an oval-shaped valley about a half a mile across it is about i thirty-five feet deep the bottom is hard i and sandy without vegetation and ' strewn with many large stones j throughout the surface is almost j covered with the bleaching bones of : animals â€” tigers pigs deers and others â€” all kinds of birds and also of human â– beings explorers of the valley seldom venture beyond the

that the british an i colonial druggist puts to itself in dis cussing the death of the young woman at hackney under circumstances in which meating's insect powder largely figured as the powder appears
